It is a lovely property. We had an outstanding experience here. The location is in the middle of everything going on in the area, while being a relaxing hideaway for down time.
Superb cottage. Loads of upgrades and attention to detail that make the space quite luxurious. Location is perfect, walking distance to downtown. Highly recommend.
We had a really relaxing stay. The place is so beautiful. The hosts were so nice, including lighting the firepit for us. Extremely clean, well laid out with anything you might need for a very lovely stay.
Great property, very clean, everything you need is there. Beautiful location , relaxing peaceful totally enjoyed or stay and would definitely stay again if visiting the area,
Creekside Casita is such a lovely find. Both the inside and outside spaces are thoughtfully appointed for a very comfortable stay, and the location is walkable to much of San Carlos. Looking forward to a return visit.
The creekside casita was a perfect base for our recent Bay Area trip. The house was comfortable and clean, and the grounds were stunning. Somehow, though we were close to peninsula thoroughfares, it felt like we were in the forest. My daughter and I both loved reading on the back chair, at peace amidst the trickling water feature and gorgeous giant trees.
Every thing you need and more. Not missing anything. Hosts are quick to answer and have wonderful happy friendly dogs. Easy to find and plenty of parking if driving.
Home is perfectly furnished and plenty of yard seating areas was gas fire pit.
We had a great stay and would not hesitate to rebook if in area again.
The host house was fully stocked & Jean is the absolute best. She made our stay very comfortable & if i had any concerns or questions she addressed them in a timely manner. A for sure place to stay. The house is on a one way side street & very quiet. Restaurants & grocery store in a 5 min drive.
The house is in a very nice neighborhood and was more than we expected. The online pictures are accurate but the area is stunning and secluded. The owners stay in the main house and controlled the outside lighting which we appreciated as we would come home later in the evening and it was adequate for the pathway leading to the house. Definitely recommend staying here as it is close to Sanfransico, Oakland and San Jose. Easy to find on GPS. Hosts are great and asked how we were enjoying our stay when we would see them. We really would recommend staying here and would rent it again if we were visiting again. Saved this on VRBO as a favourite to my profile.
Sean and Jen have created Shangri-La in San Carlos, California. The Creekside Casita is in a glorious setting on their property. I needed a home-away-from-home to visit friends I hadn’t seen since before the pandemic. If you like having a deck outside your bedroom, relaxing in the lovely living room, preparing a simple meal in the modern kitchen, sitting in the patio near the fountain, getting occasional visits from their friendly and well-behaved Golden Retrievers... you too will love staying here. Shades and blinds on doors and windows provide privacy since the cottage is across the lawn from the main house and their outdoor entertainment area. Even though there was construction down the block, the beauty and tranquility of the cottage made up for the daytime noise. Looking forward to my next stay. Many thanks to Jen and Sean!
We were impressed with the amenities on property and the thoughtful layout of the residence. Gracious hosts Jen and Sean made us feel welcome, and we enjoyed the friendly dogs as well.
I was looking for a two week rental close to my home in San Carlos for my parents. This was the perfect place for them and they were very happy with their stay.
The cottage has more comforts than my own home. The bed, windows, lighting, floor space, bathroom supplies, and kitchen cookware were more than we needed and made the stay graceful easy & beyond comfortable!
We enjoyed our stay here so much! Jen and Elsie, the dog, we're so accommodating and welcoming! Lovely little cottage with all the amenities you'd ever need!

Beautiful guest house!!
The location is very convenient to the peninsula, and yet very quiet and serene. I would stay here again any time!
